"I ordered this card for my daughter's 3rd birthday and they were absolutely gorgeous. I was very satisfied with the quality although it was not one of the most expensice cards. Delivery was on time and customer service was great. I didnt realize I had used two different fonts. I called and they were able to assist me without any problem. I totally recommend this product as well as Tinyprints."
"My daughter is having a painting party for her 5th birthday and this was the perfect invitation. Excellent quality and delivery just as promised. But next time I would order labels for the return address rather than have the envelopes pre-printed. It's easier pre-printed, but less festive."
"I ordered these with the opal shine, which adds a nice touch worth the tiny extra. I received lots of compliments from other moms on how cute the invite was! Went perfect from my daughters pool party under the sea theme! I know Tiny Prints is part of shutterfly now but tiny prints quality is definitely a step above shutterfly"
"The paper is high quality, the printing is perfect. All I can say is thank you for making my invitations perfect for my party. I am more pleased than I can even express."
"The design is well done. The paper is good quality thickness. People commented about how they liked the card--perfect for our party at the waterpark. The printed area is a little limited, so we had to take out some info we wanted to include. We got the cards with the rounded edges for a few cents more. It made the card look really nice. We are very happy with this choice."

THE demise of the slide show has been forecast for more than a decade, yet it remains one of the most effective presentation mediums in the meetings industry. I suspect it will be for a long time to come. Slides are cost-effective to create and project, and are portable. They present a considerably sharper image than does video, and the projectors continue to improve.
Bad memories may linger for anyone who's ever jammed a tray with a damaged slide, projected a slide upside down or backward, or watched his or her audience try (or not try!) to fight off a nap once the lights go down. But there are solutions to many of these problems. Here are 13 tips for avoiding presenters' most common mistakes.
Slide Show Solutions * If you use an infrared remote control, make sure that your workshop neighbor isn't using one on the same frequency. Often the air-walls will not keep your neighbors from advancing your slides-or you from advancing theirs. When in doubt, use a wired remote.
* Make sure the screen area is dark, but the room doesn't have to be. Recessed ceiling lights can be kept on, but chandeliers, sconces, and other lights that wash on the screen should be turned off, not just dimmed. Don't forget the reading light on stage. If necessary, tape a piece of cardboard to the edge of the lectern to block the light.
* If you have a problem with high ambient light, make sure your screen has a beaded surface (assuming you are not using rear projection) and consider a brighter lamp. An EXR lamp, standard for an Ektagraphic III, lasts about 35 hours and is considered 100 percent brightness. You can replace it with an EXW lamp and get 120 percent brightness, but the lamp has a life of only 15 hours. The next step up is to use a special lamp module (casing), which will give you 150 percent brightness.
* Remember this rule of thumb: The first row of viewers should not be any closer than two times the height of your screen; and the back row should be no farther back than eight times the height of your screen. (If, for example, you had a seven-foot-square screen, the back row should be no more than 56 feet away from the screen.) The bottom of your screen should be at least four feet from the floor. This keeps the visuals above the heads of the audience.
* Glance at the screen to make sure the correct slide is up, but make sure to face your audience when you speak. A fixed podium mike won't pick up a voice unless the speaker faces forward, and even a lavalier mike fades a bit if the speaker's back is to the audience.
* When using front projection, place the slide projector behind the audience. This way the machine can be placed higher (near optical center) without blocking the audience's view, and it also helps keep the fan noise away from the crowd.
* Don't mix mounts. Sometimes a projector's autofocus mechanism cannot adjust between glass mounts and plastic or cardboard mounts. It's much safer to have all the same mounts.
* Keep your slides clean. It's counter-productive to spend money on beautiful slides and then have them covered with dust. Keep your trays in their boxes or keep their covers on.
* Use 80-slot trays. The 120-slot trays tend to jam.
* To load a tray for front projection, place it in front of you on a table with the 0 slot at three o'clock and numbered slots (1, 2, 3, and so on) coming toward you. Hold the slide up and view it as it should appear on the screen. Holding it by the left bottom corner, cartwheel it into the slot. The bottom left is now the upper right. For rear projection, instead of a cartwheel, dive the slide into the slot just like going off a diving board. The left bottom corner becomes the left upper corner, and the side of the slide you were looking at ends up facing away from you.
* If you have a presentation that isn't updated often, number your slides and try this: Take the slides out of the tray, in order, and still upside-down. Hold them tightly together in a small box and, with a black marker, run a stripe down the left side of the tops. Then, with a red marker, draw a diagonal stripe from the upper left of the first slide to the bottom right of the last slide. When you put your slides back into the tray, you can tell if they're all turned the right way (for front or rear projection) and if any slide is out of order.
* If you have an especially short projection distance, ask about renting a perspective-control lens, which can make up for the problem.
* If you need a spotlight at the last minute, put a circle mount in a slide projector with a zoom lens and get some light on your VIP.

Recycling Batteries Responsibly
The European Directive on Batteries and Accumulators aims to minimise the impact of batteries on the environment and encourage the recovery of the materials they contain. In the UK, regulations on the recycling of batteries and accumulators (rechargeable batteries) were Introduced in 2009. The Waste Batteries Regulations aim to significantly increase UK collection and recycling of used portable batteries from 3% in 2007 to 25% by 2012, rising to at least 45% in 2016.
The battery symbol on a product or on its packaging indicates that the product must not be disposed of with general household waste. Instead, it is the consumer's responsibility to dispose of their waste batteries at a designated collection point so that they can be recycled. The separate collection and recycling of batteries at the time of dispo sal will help to conserve natural resources and ensure that they are recycled in a manner that protects human health and the environment. A comprehensive list of battery recycling centres can be obtained from: www.recycle-more.co.uk
All Samsung products that are subject to the Batteries Directive are compliant with the UK battery and accumulator Requirements. In accordance with national law, SAMSUNG Electronics (UK) Ltd is a member of an approved batteries producer compliance scheme. This scheme collects, treats and disposes of batteries on Samsung's behalf.

Though the ultimate winner was a Chicago deep-dish legend, four Connecticut pizzerias found their way to Esquire Magazine's recent "Life-Changing Pizza" list, proving again that the Nutmeg State's pies are among the country's best.
Frank Pepe's Pizzeria Napoletana came in second with 13.6% of the vote, just behind champion Lou Malnati's at 14.2%. Other Connecticut entries included Roseland Apizza of Derby with 9.75% of votes, Modern Apizza of New Haven with 4.6% and Zuppardis Apizza of West Haven with 0.5%. (Surprisingly, Pepe's Wooster Street rival, Sally's, wasn't in the top 15.)
Only two New York joints, DiFara of Brooklyn and Lombardi's in Manhattan, made the list. Other national favorites include Pizzeria Bianco in Phoenix (by James Beard-award winning chef Chris Bianco) and pizzerias in St. Louis, San Francisco, San Diego, St. Paul; Elm Grove, W. Va. and Goshen, Ind.
See the full list at Esquire. Do you agree with the Connecticut representation?

Arcteryx Men's Thorium AR Jacket
The Arc'teryx Men's Thorium AR Jacket succeeds at giving you maximum warmth and versatility in a mid-layer while limiting weight. They have expertly mapped two different types of insulation across areas of need: Coreloft synthetic in moisture-prone zones (hem, collar, sleeves and underarms) and 750 fill down in the core and arms. With such mapping precision they should have called this the Rand McNally Jacket.... but Arc'teryx never listens to my jacket name suggestions. The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finished exterior will shed some moisture so the Thorium AR can handle itself on its own, but really shines as an insulating layer under a shell.
FEATURES of the Arcteryx Men's Thorium AR Jacket
- Down Composite Mapping strategically places both down and synthetic insulation inside jacket
- Soft, durable face fabric withstands abrasion while DWR finish repels moisture
- Collar height provides warmth layering easily
- Two zippered hand pockets, stuff sack included in pocket
- Low profile, elasticized cuff layers easily
- Hem drawcord adjusts to seal out drafts
SPECIFICATIONS of the Arcteryx Men's Thorium AR Jacket
- Weight: 12.7 oz / 360 g
- Fit: Athletic, hip length
- Colibri - 100% nylon
- 750 fill European goose down (100 g) (M)
- Coreloft 80 and 140 insulation (80 g/m2 and 140 g/m2)
This product can only be shipped within the United States. Please don't hate us.

Was debating between the Thorium AR and Cerium LT for a bit. Finally decided to go with the Thorium for the more durable 40D Colibri face fabric and slightly less trim fit for layering, since I plan to use this as an outer layer when a waterproof shell isn't needed. If Arcteryx stuff fits you well this will fit right in with the rest of your collection in the same size. Nice athletic fit but provides good movement and some room for layering. The face fabric is very low sheen, which I like. The inside fabric is shiny and smooth and feels nice on the skin. The minimal puffiness keeps you from looking like the Michelin man. The jacket is so light doesn't even feel like you have a jacket on. It's been below 32F in NY the last few days and I've used it with just a t-shirt under and it kept me nice and toasty walking around the city. I was surprised that it does a good job of keeping the wind out too. Love this jacket!
Best down I own - have a Pat high loft but I always prefer the fit of Arc better - whether it's sweaters, jackets, etc. True warmth w/ no weight or bulk. Minor irritation -when zipped up, there's a big dimple in the center of the jacket where the inside lining materials meet, causing a 5" puckering of the zipper and shell visible from the outside. Picture a 5" belly button just below the sternum. Just gives the appearance of poor tailoring/sewing. Not a deal breaker but I pay a premium for Arc because I expect a premium attention to detail. I hope it's just flaw with my jacket and not how every Thorium turns out.
There's a reason I always return to Arcteryx for outdoor clothing - the quality of material and construction. I tried this down jacket for a 3-day backpacking trip to the Smokies and it was perfect. The athletic fit allows good movement, even with a backpack, and the provided stuff sack is convenient when you need to peel a layer. No cold/hot spots and the loft didn't shift around inside the fabric. This jacket does run a little tight; so putting fleece layers underneath makes for a really snug fit which may bother some folks. Exceptional quality with the workmanship (seams, zipper, cuffs, etc.) and the fit all around is true to size.Great Moosejaw customer service (as expected & received)

After several months of hard work, we are excited to finally be launching our drinkers with a whole new theme of names, revolving around actual beverages and drink components. May we present to you 'drink deep.'
continue reading
Over the years, people started using their glassybaby in more ways than one. Aside from lighting them, customers, staff included, began drinking out of their glassybaby collections. And so, the drinker was born. Lee's oldest son, Hector, wrote the perfect description of the drinker and how it came to be.
Long before the arrival of the drinker, Lee had always wanted to give back to the Department of Veterans Affairs. Having visited several times, she saw how underfunded they were and she wanted to help in a big way. From the day they were born, back in 2008, 10 percent from the sale of every, single drinker is donated to the Department of Veteran Affairs to support the basic daily health needs of our veterans. Giving is the core mission at glassybaby, so it has been so rewarding for us to be involved with such an incredible organization.
The drinker can be used with both warm and cool liquids and can be rinsed in the top shelf of your dishwasher (although we recommend hand washing ☺). Like their glassybaby sibling, each and every drinker is hand blown with three layers of glass by our talented glass artists. With names ranging from 'moo' to 'fresh squeezed' to 'fizz' to 'crème de cassis,' and a variety of sets, there's a drinker for everyone in your life. We're ready for you to peek through our entire collection, so come check them out!

Hello all
I've been lurking around here for quite a while now.
I live in Belgium and have been wanting to get an iPhone ever since they got released.
I decided against importing and waited until they were released in Europe, hoping to get a decently priced unlocked iPhone. Well, that isn't going to happen.
I've been wondering.. If I were to import an US iPhone and get it unlocked in France, would it work? I mean, could I get it unlocked in France?
Because so far, my options are these:
a) Get one in Germany way overpriced
b) Import and wait for a hack, then get worried about updates and whatnot.
c) Get one in France, unlocked, but I've heard it's pretty much impossible to get it unlocked if you don't live in France? Can anyone confirm this?
d) Import an US iPhone and try to get it unlocked in France for 100 euros.
(Anyone tried this one yet?)
e) Wait til Apple finally gets their head out of their a**es (ain't gonna happen)
Blargh, I hate and love you so at the same time, Apple!
So yes, mainly I'd like to know if it would be possible to legally unlock an US iPhone in France, thank you if anyone can help!

Olympus Stylus 850SW Comments & Questions (write your own!)
I charged it this morning and it turned on saying to wipe the card contact area with a clean cloth then it shut off.
Please tell me this is just a simple issue (fingers crossed!)
Your best bet is to run GRCs SpinRite. But it's not cheap.
Try resetting the camera and installing any new firmware updates. Lastly, you may have a failing CCD. As such, a repair may be your only recourse. And if you still have a warranty, your best bet is to get it to Olympus ASAP to have it repaired under the warranty.
No need to lose the moment because you relied on one card one when several can solve that problem. At the very least, you want to get more than one of whatever size you settle on.
One last thing. Cards have different speeds. The faster a card is, the quicker it'll save the photo and cycle to be ready for another shot. In the end, your camera is only going to be as fast as it's slowest link in the chain. So check for speed when you purchase a card.
If your memory card is broken unfortunately,Please take it ease,Let me help you!These are eleven major problems and solutions of memory card as follows.
One: put the memory card in the computer to identify. On the cell phone it does not recognize!!
This situation is often because the memory card formats on the computer, but the format is not compatible with the mobile phone. Solutions are put the card right back into the cell phone and use cell phone the "format memory card" function of the cell phone to reformat!!
Two: mobile phone tips "pull out the memory card, press OK" . pull out will follow the prompts and pull out the card and the insert it into the cell phone,you will be able to continue to use the cell phone, but soon it has prompted to pull back the card, so repeatedly!!
This is because of often plugging a memory card, it results in loosening of bad cell phone memory card slot. You can consider going to the customer service about cell phone repair, and pay attention to hot-swappable cards not too much force .
Three: memory card password is lost, memory card file is very important!!
Download and install MMspwd software, after run the software, we can see a row of garbled, garbled interval shows in figure or in English is password!!
Four: the read and write speed of MMC card is more and more slow, much less than just bought .They are the same storage devices, the MMC memory card in the mobile phone is the same as in the computer .After a period of time it will appear the debris disk which will affect the read and write speed because of frequent delete and copy. however, hard disk format is FAT32 or NTFS, the MMC mobile card is FAT16.Therefore, the mobile phone through the computer's Disk Defragmenter will often occur a series of errors, serious error will occur in the MMC card inserted in the mobile phone.
In fact, we only need to copy MMC card hidden files and format the card and then copy the files into it.
Five: when plug memory card in mobile phone, it can not open the page, but it can when pull out!!
Unable to open web pages, or "network" without reflecting,since there are probably caused by the input method. Switch back to the original input method for solving the problem !!
SIX: MMC card of 1GBYTE, 600MB is copyed into the document, and then on computer is not possible to remove the memory card safely, so remove it, after put the memory card into the mobile phone, it displays "card in order to damage", such as in computer card connector, the computer does not recognize ! The memory card, which is disposable copy of the information of large capacity , occasionally can not be removed after the memory card of the situation,
it is recommended after the copy when separate groups of copy,If the cell phone memory card with the computer does not recognize, it could be: A: on client computer, use the FAT16 format to format. B: use force format tool MMCMEDIC to repair C: format the memory card directly in the mobile phone.
seven: when format the memory card, it shows "memory card to be used" .
To restart the mobile phone ,the problem is still there.Try to follow these steps: Shut down ----reswap memory card --- --- boot
EIGHT: A lot of procedures of the cell phone can not be normal operation. When the mobile phone is connected with memory card, it shows'"memory card does not exist and can not connect! "
'The situation is likely to be caused by the change of the name of memory card , resulting in procedural mistakes, as long as replacing the names of memory card in bulk everywhere in the registry in the computer notebookis OK!!
Nine: It shows "Can not use" after reformat the memory czrd.
First check whether the use of format is FAT32 format or not, if it is using FAT16 format, the problem still exists, you can try the computer system at the "Disk Utility" to repair .
Ten: multimedia photos, video files placed in the memory card can't be found suddenly .
Use memory card reader to connect with the computer, to determine their letter, open the computer's "Start" menu, select Run, press enter after type "CMD ", in the MS-DOS command, enter" VCHKDSK H: / F "
Eleven:put memory card in the reader, after the connection,nothing reflects on the computer, and then two situations arise: A: it prompts computer memory card can not be read by. B: Wait for a long time and lose patience, and unplug the memory card , computer displays inoperable memory card!!!
check whether the card reader is well plugged!! No,change another reader or on the format ,and then still no,only the replacement of permit!
This is my experience and my approach. Hope everyone can get some help from it.
I have played with the various features and the pictures look great. I did take it to the zoo with my grandchildren.......................it seemed a little slow and I missed the shots I really wanted...............but then most of these are a little slow....and I really only want it for the beach and skiing.
Normal camera design would only require you to press once to record and then again to stop.
Also, since the date/time are written into the file (called EXIF data), it could be that if you have a PICTBRIDGE compatible camera and printer, you can print the date and time directly. But it doesn't have a date/stamp directly on the image to my knowledge.
I can see the battery icon flashing but do not know how much time or how many pictures I can take before the battery shuts down the camera. (My mode dial is on the camera icon.)
Finally, what should the mode dial be set to?...when hitting "display"?
You can find the battery at <a href="psaparts.co.uk/digital-came... this site </a>.
~Primary concern is picture quality- I do some gallery work, usually 8x10. I want sharp (not grainy) images to use in photoshop. That's why I am looking at Canons.
~Like having many setting options so I can some control over picture quality, and it seems Olympus is the better option for that.
Getting ready to go to Africa, so I need something small and durable as well.
Price not really a matter.
Any suggestions would be very helpful!
The Olympus 850 SW ( digitalcamera-hq.com/digita... ) takes a good beating as it's shock proof from up to 5 feet, waterproof from 10 feet deep and can even handle temps to -10C.
And if you really want to give him/her a leg up, why not take a digital photography class with him? Teach him the rule of thirds and photo composition, give him a love for experimentation with the image and you'll start a lifelong love affair with capturing an image.
You gotta get em young.
Kind regards
I have also read that there are certain number of shots before a battery charge runs out..
it says in the manual that its around 100+ shots.. I kinda had over 100 shots before my battery died on me.. Usually, for your camera, how long does the battery lasts? a day? how many shots were you able to take before it dies on you?
thanks again!
I have seen 2GB card and 4GB cards for the same price.
I had a problem on my Sony DSC-T300 charger and i did just that and now it is working fine.
After a while dirt and other stuff can stick on the contact surfaces and cause bad contact and so the charger thinks the battery is bad.
And it is really not ok from Olimpus not to have in the manual the meaning of the blinking light!!!!!!!!!!
thanks donny!
Thanks Domy!
I read in another forum that if you push the battery into the charger to the point that the light will come on. Then when it starts flashing, slide it back off and then on again. According to this person, do that a few times and the light will stay on when you put the battery in (like the battery is totally dead - fully discharged, and this charges it a bit at a time).
I suspect the other strategies of turning the cord and cleaning the contacts were another way of performing micro charges (unknowingly). Each attempt probably yields a small charge. Sure, if the contacts were dirty, cleaning them is the proper solution, but more often than not, I believe people are encountering the fully discharged scenario.
So to reiterate, insert the battery briefly and yank before it starts to blink. Do this 5-10 times in a row. Then test it by keeping it inserted. If it still blinks, repeat the process.
It worked for me!
If you buy a xD card, make sure it's type M+ or H if you want to record more than 10 seconds of video.
The website also supports this claim. I don't see it as being a problem in use.
The smaller the image size, the longer the movie length you can take. the instruction manual ( olympusamerica.com/files/St... ) for the camera lays it out in a table on page 55 (for movies, page 54 for photos). At a frame rate of 30fps at the larger movie size, you can only take 10 seconds of video. If you change the settings to 15fps at the smaller size, you can get up to 29 minutes on a 1GB card. I hope this helps.
from olympus website: (olympusamerica.com/cpg_sect... Available:
microSD Firmware Version 1.1
* Now supports movie recording on 4 GB and higher microSDHC cards.
* Using an xD-Picture Card TypeM+ or TypeH, you can now continuously record movies with VGA quality ( 640 x 480 ) 30 fps up to the capacity of the card.
If movies have already been recorded with the current firmware ( 1.0 ) on a 4 GB or higher microSDHC card ( hereafter referred to as "the card" ), the contents of the card should be backed up to a PC. Then, please format the card using the camera. Please note that formatting cards deletes all data stored on the card, including images and data recorded using other devices.
I went looking to find a way to get it to record similarly to the 4g sd card, thinking I must not have the newest firmware after all, which led me to this site and discussion. I am able to record only 10sec video to the 4g sd card in 30fpsVGA, though the limitation does not apply to any other mode. Eventually I found the following on Olympus' website, which may be of interest to anyone reading this far:
"The maximum movie length is limited to 29-minutes per movie. Using Type M, standard xD-Picture Card, micorSD/microSDHC card, or the camera's internal memory, the maximum recording length per movie is limited to 10 seconds with VGA/30 fps movie mode. All other movie modes allow up to 29-minutes of recording time per movie."
Available at:
olympusamerica.com/cpg_sect... yes, firmware version 1.1 does allow recording to 4g microSD cards, as noted above and on Olympus' website. And it also allows recording "continuously ... up to the capacity of the card" at 30fpsVGA. But it does not allow 30fpsVGA recording directly to an sd card, as one might erroneously deduce from the information listed above and elsewhere.
Hope this helps.

I have already had to send my camera back twice! Although they say it is waterproof, mine has leaked twice. I sent it back last in november and have used it once since then. I am going away for new years so I got it out and guess what....it wont turn on! Know someone else with the same camera who has also sent it back twice. Do not buy!

This camera takes awesome underwater pictures, but regular pictures are normally blurry even with the shake setting. I'm not very please with it.

Had to buy this camera in Maui in Feb. because we used my brothers older model of this camera and it leaked and fried the board. Seven months later we did a trip to Vegas and took some poolside pics until the new camera got water in it as well. We are very careful with it and followed the instructions as in the manual. Too bad that it can't keep the water out, as it's a pain getting a warantee replacement.

We bought our camera 11 months ago on a Carnival Cruise trip. It took good pics until we went snorkeling with it last week. Water proof its not. It hasen't worked since our first snorkle trip. Sucky camera and I wouldn't buy another.
- 1.0 out of 5
I bought this specifically for being able to use it snorkeling/poolside. Didnt test it in water until this week - First try - Camera broke - NOT WATERPROOF ! went through all the proper instructions. Camera is done after 6 months and one attempt. No pictures this year from our Hawaii trip because camera didnt make it through 24 hours. I will never buy again.

We live in Hawaii and used the camera quite a bit. I was careful to follow all the directions expecially in the water and after three months it began to leak. Good pics but as far a durability – it really didn't last long. Bummer!!!

i got this camera a year ago and not once did i regret it! some say that it doesn't take the gr8est pix, but that does not bother me. i think the pix are gr8. anyway i am very clumsy so whenever i drop my camera everyone around me freaks out and i just smile and think what would happen if i didn't have this camera? once i accidently brought it into a hot tub and the screen was black and i was so nervous and the next day i turned it on and it worked! you can also write things on the pix or make calenders or put frames on, so basically this is an awesome camera and u should get it!
- 5.0 out of 5
i strongly reccomend this camera to everyone! 1st of all i always drop it and it is such a relief to turn it on and it is working! also it takes really cool water movies! once, i accidently brought into a hottub so my screen turned black (i was still able to take pix though) and i was so upset because i love this camera and i turned it on the next morning and it worked again! also it takes really good pictures it has a lot of different settings that it switches to automaticaly like if it is dark it goes on a speacial mode. GET THIS CAMERA TODAY! YOU WON'T REGRET IT!
- 4.0 out of 5
this camera quite ok to use, it is easy to operate.
For those user that wan to have some other shooting style, this camera also can provide some different style but not much.
the anti-vibration function, it still has some blur if the vibration to very large.... but overall is good....
most impotant things is remember to dry it completely before storing...
enjoy ur time...

I have 3 dsl cameras, an Olympus 1010 and a Lumix TZ5. This little 850 is absolutely incredible. The price was amazing. I took this snorkeling in Maui and couldn't believe the quality. I also took pics of different things on the island and had some blown up. I let my grandkids play with it in the pool to take videos of each other underwater. Again - amazing. I carry it in my purse because it's small and it really does do great pictures - easy to use and inexpensive.

Bought this camera for snorkelling purposes. The first time I got to use it, it worked fine. The second time it leaked into the memory card slot. I was afraid I had lost the pictures of the turtles in the caribbean. After removing the card and trying to dry out the card and slot, three days later I was able to retrieve the previous pictures. However I missed a great snorelling opporunity in Tobaga Cay because the camera was unusuable.

I use this camera to do property inspections, about 100 photos per day. I use the silicone cover over it and take it into crawlspaces where the dust and mud have done in more expensive cameras. It has been dropped a number of times and it just bounces. Would like to use it on vacation, if I ever get one.

I was really looking forward to buying and playing with this camera as the reviews for this camera are great and some of our friends said it was excellent. However, I'm finding it increasingly difficult to take photos that aren't blurred. I have taken some great underwater photos and landscapes, but it's terrible at taking spontaneous shots and shots of moving subjects as they ALWAYS come out blurred! It's so frustrating! I can't seem to work out which setting to put it to... you'd think the auto setting would be good enough! Disappointed. :-(

Bought the 850SW for a trip to Hawaii. I just ain't natural to imerse a camera in water w/o a protective case. Took it snorkeling in the ocean, taking both video and still shots. Camera performed flawlessly. Crystal clear images. So easy to use, the wife took it away from me. With an 8gb card, we shot video and stills for 2 weeks and did not run out of memory. The only drawback is that the battery is used up quickly (2 or so hours) in video mode. Other than that, I highly recommend the camera. My daughter is a semipro photog and she loves it. Great vacation camera.

great camera,great pics and foolproof to use!got it as an early christmas gift and havnt left home without it since,perfect to keep in your pocket!

well its a really durable camera, the only thing i dont really like is the fact that when your taking pictures at night, they come out dark... the flash is not strong... all my other cameras i owned before would light up the whole room even when its completely dark .. the pictures would come out light and perfect. So that is the only thing i dislike, but if your mostly going to use it during the day it is fine!

We just returned from a trip to Saint Lucia. We took well over 600 pictures, many many pictures of fish. I loved that you could take it in the salt water with you and then wash it in the sink with soap and water. The one day I did not take it in the water I saw an Octopus and a Lobster so I never went in the water with out it again. It spent hours and hours in the salt water and then I used it for sunsets and other pictures. I kept it at 5M as I did not want the pictures to be large file size; however the files size was similar to my Sony at 3M pixel so I think it is best to leave it set at 8M pixels. I was extremely pleased with most pictures. I had blur on about 50 pictures. But ouuta 600 that is not bad. Most of those were in the water or on a boat. Below is a link for 150 of my favorite pics from our trip.

I love the 850SW! It's super easy to use when all you want is a simple point and click that takes great shots, and there are features galore when you feel like diving into the easy to navigate menu. It's hard to take a bad shot with this! I also can't believe why anyone wouldn't choose a waterproof/shockproof camera; why would you get a watch that stops working whenever it rains? It's nice and slim and easily fits into a pocket. It looks really good, and it shoots pretty fast too, not too much camera lag. All in all we're really happy with our purchase and have had zero problems after shooting hundreds of photos already. Downloading with the provided software is a snap too.

Wow I was really interested in this camera the second I found out it was waterproof and shock proof! I love going swimming and I am very clumsy! So it was perfect. I got it for my 14th bday in june and I love it...only problem was the short battery life....I need another battery.... I suggest getting this camera if you like going in the water and if you're like me and you drop stuff...ALOT! Just get another battery. I got the yellow one... it comes in alot of nice colors for guys and girls..the yellow is really bright!

I love the camera. Easy and fun to use. Although they say I can get a camera with a better image quality for the same price, I'm quite happy with the images it produces. However, there was one and only time it was dropped, from my waist down. The corner of the camera had a small dent which prevented the USB cover to close properly which would cause a problem if it would be used underwater. Operation wise, it still worked perfectly. The nice people of Olympus did replace part of the casing which was damaged since it was still under warranty.

This camera is great! I took this camera to Hawaii. And I didn't have to worry about the water because the camera is waterproof. I also used the camera at Hanauma Bay and I took a lot of great video and still photo of the fish. I think the only draw back with the camera is the battery life. Its only good for 2 hours of taking pictures and video will use up more battery life. So you'll need another battery if you plan on taking a lot of pictures. Overall a great camera for its price.

This camera actually exceeds my expectations, which were average based on other reviews. While it's not a high-end SLR, the image quality is quite good. Macro modes are quick and when combined with shake-reduction yield very nice images of close subjects.
I've played with a number of the scene settings, and there are a LOT of scenes available. Navigating these options is easy and quick. Also very useful is an exposure preview function which shows 4-at-a-time previews for over and under exposing the subject. This has proven quite useful in the short time I've owned the camera.
While probably a little heavier than other similar cameras, the durability more than compensates for this. It's easily tucked into a pocket for portability. Buttons are a little small, so if you're ham-handed, you really want to give the camera a test at your local store. It's hard to take pictures one-handed, as its pretty small and the buttons are all pretty close.
I'm happy with the camera, and hope to do some underwater photography soon. I would recommend anyone who purchases this camera to also purchase spare batteries, as they seem to drain relatively quickly, though a power saving function does help.

I bought this camera specifically to take on vacations.. beach, sand, pool, travel.. Boy was I surprised with this camera. I am a Canon guy and while this camera doesn't give me same quality pictures as my DSLR or Powershot.. it goes places I would never think of taking those other camera... The beach pictures were excellent, the underwater pictures and video were outstanding.. all for $299. To top it off, my boys (under 10 years) grabbed the camera and took many pictures and videos themselves... without me worrying about the camera going bust. It was great to see things from their perspective.. from that standpoint the 850SW is worth its weight in gold... add in the great quality pictures above and below the waterline .. and this is a winner all around...
I bought the blue one..

I bought it because it is waterproof and tough. I didn't expect to get great photos, just good snapshots. But it's exceeded my expectations so far. Especially outdoors, the 8mp pix are very clear, and look as if taken with a much larger lens. Does a nice job as an all-around snapshot camera, and a little more than that.
Battery life is also excellent, and I felt no need to get a spare battery. And it comes with an SD-mini adapter, so you don't have to use XD cards if you don't want to.
The underwater snapshots are great, and I use it at the beach and surfing with the kids with no fear. A cool camera.

takes good pics. You cannot embed a time date stamp with this camera. This is why i purchased it not knowing the time date stamp does not embed. You can only print it on the pic you can not file with that feature.

A1c Below Diabetes Levels Predicts CVDPosted: Sunday, May 09, 2010
Researchers found that HbA1c values significantly predicted CVD or death, whereas FPG levels were not significant after adjustment for other risk factors. The additional usefulness of HbA1c may therefore justify the marginally higher cost of the test relative to the inexpensive FPG.
The Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) study is a community-based assessment of 15,792 middle-aged adults in four US communities. After excluding individuals with established diabetes or cardiovascular disease (CVD), a sample size of 11,092 was followed for up to 15 years (4 visits at about 3-year intervals) for onset of new diabetes, new CVD, stroke, and all-cause mortality.
Using data from visit 2 (1990-1992), the only visit for which stored whole-blood samples were available for measurement of glycated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), the investigators compared the prognostic value of HbA1c and fasting plasma glucose (FPG) for identifying adults at risk for diabetes or CVD. Statistical models examined categories of HbA1c as predictors of each of those outcomes, first adjusted for age, sex and race, then for the addition of lipid levels, body mass index, waist-to-hip ratio, hypertension, family history of diabetes, education, alcohol use, physical activity, smoking, and finally, FPG. This process was repeated for the examination of categories of FPG as predictors of the outcomes, with the final models adjusted for the addition of HbA1c.
Table. HbA1c Levels and Corresponding Multivariate Hazard Ratios
HbA1c = hemoglobin A1c
The table shows multivariable-adjusted hazard ratios (95% confidence intervals) for diagnosed diabetes for different HbA1c levels. The hazard ratios for stroke were similar, but for all-cause mortality, HbA1c displayed a J-shaped association curve. All associations remained significant after adjustment for the baseline FPG. In contrast, the associations between the FPG and the risk for CVD or death were not significant in models with adjustment for all covariates as well as for HbA1c. For coronary heart disease, measures of risk discrimination showed significant improvement when HbA1c was added to models including FPG.
Change rarely comes easily, and the American Diabetes Association's decision to recommend HbA1c as a diagnostic tool for diabetes will undoubtedly spawn a number of studies that alternatively confirm or deny the wisdom of the decision. The current study is a well-done analysis of well-known data (ARIC) that support the use of HbA1c, because the HbA1c and FPG values performed similarly for a diabetes diagnosis. It would have been nice to see the HbA1c and FPG values categorized in more directly comparable ways, with the same number of categories and each with an approximately similar level of dysglycemia.
Perhaps more important than the diabetes findings was that HbA1c values significantly predicted CVD or death, whereas FPG levels were not significant after adjustment for other risk factors. The additional usefulness of HbA1c may therefore justify the marginally higher cost of the test relative to the inexpensive FPG.
Furthermore, the recent ADVANCE [Action in Diabetes and Vascular Disease: Preterax and Diamicron MR Controlled Evaluation], ACCORD [Action to Control Cardiovascular Risk in Diabetes], and VADT [Veterans Affairs Diabetes Trial] trials left us wondering about the value of tight glycemic control in reducing CVD risk. One shortcoming of each of these trials was that most participants had had diabetes for many years, and the designs could not account for the long-term accumulation of glycemic burden. In other words, the damage from high HbA1c may have already been done, so that tight control during the trials had relatively little effect.
The current ARIC analysis demonstrates that higher HbA1c levels, even in the normal range, increase CVD risk. Although far from conclusive, these observational results suggest that keeping HbA1c as near normal as possible even before diabetes onset may help prevent CVD.

Connecticut lowered its preterm birth rate between 2010 and 2011 to 10.1 percent, which reflects a five-year national improvement trend, according to a release sent by the March of Dimes. The organization, however, gave the state another "B" on its 2012 Report Card because the rate wasn't lowered enough.
"Connecticut's progress means that more babies are being born healthy, excess health care costs are being reduced, and families are being spared the heartache of having a baby born too soon," said Michael Botelho, Chair of the Connecticut Chapter Board of Directors.
Forty states, including Connecticut, saw improvement in their preterm birth rates between 2010 and 2011. On the 2012 Report Card, 16 states got a better grade. Nationwide, the largest declines in preterm birth occurred among babies born at 34 to 36 weeks of pregnancy, but the improvement was across the board. Nationally, every racial and ethnic group benefitted, and the preterm birth rates for babies born at all stages of pregnancy improved.
According to the organization, the rate of late preterm births in Connecticut is 7 percent, the rate of women smoking is 18.4 percent, and the rate of uninsured women is 13.9 percent.
The United States again received a "C" on the March of Dimes Report Card. Grades are based on comparing each state's and the nation's 2011 preliminary preterm birth rates with the March of Dimes 2020 goal of 9.6 percent of all live births. The U.S. preterm birth rate is 11.7 percent, a decline of more than 8 percent from the peak of 12.8 percent in 2006.

"We're very proud of our schools," Dryden said.
Board of Education member Jerry Cash echoed that sentiment. It's the teachers, he said.
"We have cream of the crop teachers," Cash said. "I firmly believe that."
To be included in the state rankings a school had to be awarded a gold or silver medal under the magazine's qualifications. The medals are awarded based on criteria including the college readiness of students, math and English proficiency and the student-teacher ratio.
In Alabama math and English proficiency was determined by student performance on the Alabama High School Graduation test. At Cleburne County High School 94 percent of students were proficient and 29 percent exceeded the standards in math. In English 91 percent were proficient and 15 percent exceeded the standards.
College readiness was determined by the number of students who participated and passed Advanced Placement courses or the International Baccalaureate Program, both of which can earn high school students college credits. Cleburne County schools don't offer the International Baccalaureate program but they do offer AP classes.
At Cleburne County High School 32 percent of students participated in at least one AP class. Of those students who were taking the AP classes, 33 percent passed the tests to receive college credit. The school earned a College Readiness Index of 17.6.
Both high schools in the county were awarded medals. Cleburne County High School received a silver making it eligible for state ranking. Ranburne High School received a bronze.
At Ranburne, 93 percent of students were proficient in math and 23 percent exceeded standards. In English, 89 percent of students were proficient while 13 percent exceeded standards.
Ranburne earned a college readiness index of .7, well under Cleburne County's 17.6.
Three percent of students at RHS participated in AP classes but none passed the exams to gain college credit for them.
Dryden said the difference was the availability of the AP classes and the training of the teachers. Cleburne County High School has a few of the classes because of a three-year grant the school received from A+ College Ready, Dryden said.
"Ranburne did not have that opportunity," Dryden said. "It's a funding issue."
It's expensive to train the teachers to teach the classes and to provide the equipment needed for the classes. The extra training for the AP classes also increased the number of students who exceed the standards on the graduation test, Dryden believes.
"Because we have Pre-AP classes," Dryden said. "And part of that training wasn't just for the AP teachers, it was for the teachers who lead up to those 11th and 12th grade AP classes."
It increased the rigor for all the students, she said.
But money isn't the only issue that stands in the way of adding the advanced classes at Ranburne, Dryden said. Larger schools have a teacher teaching one specific grade level, for instance ninth grade English. It's easy to schedule one of those classes as a Pre-AP class, she said.
With Ranburne being a smaller school, teachers often teach every grade level. That makes it harder to schedule Pre-AP and AP classes while still accommodating all the students, she said. Still she's offered to allow teachers to use some of the professional development funds available to get AP and Pre-AP training; and she'll continue working to bring the opportunity of advanced classes to the students at Ranburne, she said.
